Dear god these fucking ads before the movies are pissing me off...

Anyways, what the FUCK was this guy thinking? Is it honestly worth it to set yourself on fire just to get a few minutes of airtime on TV?



Definately.

ok, my aytalian is a lil' rusty but here's the story: this dude had a 13-30 (can't say which, but to me 30 years sounds absurd) year voyage god knows where (the host begins at "after a 13 year long trip bla bla") he goes home and finds his appartment empty, his wife left him and went to australia, after the host stops speaking the guy bables on (he says sorry cause he's very nervous) and said "to whomever this happens is truly the civillian death"... after he pours gasoline on him and those two people jump in he says: "no, I want it, there's no law against this!".... then that piece of paper appears and the host calms the man down by saying "I'm gonna read it, stay calm... we'll read it, there's no need for something like this"... it ends by the host asking him "what does this reffer to?" referring to the paper... I may have paraphrazed and ommited some things but that's it... and it's "stai tranquillo", I do not vouch for that cause I learnt italian by ear...

Well, seems you need an Italian guy... here's the fact (my compliments to Vizreel for understanding a lot, even if he misunderstood something): This man is divorced. 13 years ago, he returned home but nobody was there because his wife went to australia, without telling anyone, taking his 5-year-old son with her. (he did not make a 13 year voyage!:-)). Anyway, he couldn't go to australia nor he could see, talk to or visit his son for 13 years, until he turned 18 and, became of age, could came in italy. Imagine a father who can't see his own son for 13 years. He's fighting a battle for the divorced faters' rights. Like those men in england with the batman costume. He made this extreme demonstrative act, to bring this issue to the public opinion. Too often the fathers are penalized in divorces, the children, in 99% of divorces are entrusted to mothers. This man shows how far a parent could love his son. so, please, think twice before calling him stupid or idiot

I'm sorry....but a man who attempts to burn himself on national television should not have kids in the care of his pyromaniac hands. Not trying to be judgemental but im trying to look at this from a Judge's perspective.
